Depends on your market, if you are targetting the UK only then £ but if you are international then go with $ although both would be good

$ I would think. We are international and only accept US Dollars.

Hiya,

Agreeing with Mike here, even international customers buy in $ a lot.

My take on this is that you ought to collect whatever currency you are working with in your nation, doesn't make sense to lose 1-2% on exchange broker costs or bank transfer costs, if you live in UK charge 'em pounds, if you're in the States, ring them in Dollars!

Excellent point.
